Former Nigerian presidential aide, Reno Omokri, has disclosed that the United States, Republican presidential running mate, James David Vance, once called the party’s presidential candidate, Donald Trump, “American Hitler.”
Omokri said Vance had viciously attacked Trump in the past, saying he’s never a “guy” of the former president.
The former US president had named Vance, a Senator from Ohio, his running mate ahead of the November presidential election.
Reacting, Omokri said Nigerians should learn from Trump-Vance politics.
Posting on X, Omokri wrote: “Former President Trump has just chosen Ohio Senator James David Vance as his running mate. Please fact-check me: Senator Vance is a man who viciously attacked President Trump in the past. He said he was “a never Trump guy”.
“He called Donald Trump an “idiot.”. He urged Americans not to vote for Donald Trump and called Mr. Trump “America’s Hitler.”
“But today, he has been nominated as the vice presidential candidate under Trump and has publicly accepted the nomination.
“I urge everyone to learn politics from Trump and Vance. There are no permanent friends or enemies in politics. Only permanent interest.”
